I think everybody needs to know the length of the arch and
the degree of the arch if possible.

There are several methods to make arched molding, and some
are easier than others. The length of the piece is a
"must have" before folks can be more helpful.

Hi all,

I have an upcoming project that's still in the "thinking stage", which
is to say that I'm trying yo figure out all of the operations that I'll
need to do and finding ways to do it with my existing skills and
equipment.

I'm using a large ogee bit (1 3/8" radius) to creat a moulding effect.
So far I've done this exclusively on straight stock using the router
table. The upcoming project will need the same moulding edge on an
arched panel. This bit is large, almost like a panel bit, plus I have
very little experience routing freehand so I don't think that's a
viable option.
